THE PROTECTOR
Chap 17's

Levi's villa unit is on lot A-88.

Unbeknownst to Ashton and his men, the troops had formed a square formation surrounding the plots of A87, A88, A89 to B88.

Each of them stood on full alert, armed with a fully loaded firearm ready to fire the first strike.

All they need is an order.

 Outside the villa.

“So how now?”  Ashton still grinned strangely as he mocked Levi, “Where are your people?  Are they all cold now? ”

Levi gestured with a flick of his finger.

Next moment.

Thump!  Thump!  Thump!

The ground seemed to be moving under their feet as a simultaneous line of troops roared across the silent air.

"What's going on here?  What sound is it?”

 Trey's men looked around in panic, eyes bulging and straining like dogs.

The lines were more and more, the rhythm was so uniform and disciplined that it almost turned into a deafening explosion.

"What the fuck?"

Trey's army froze as they saw the approaching troops coming towards them from four angles.

Matthew, Trey, and Ashton were shaken and glued to the ground like statues.  Everyone was silent in horror.

Never had they seen such a formation before their eyes.  The soldiers aligned themselves in rows of uniforms, each armed with the deadliest weapon suitable for war!

Thump!  Thump!  Thump!  The beat continues.

Soon the troops stood in his position, forming a human barricade as they occupied the four corners and fenced off everyone.

Everyone raised their weapons and aimed their barrel directly at Ashton and his group.

Crews! the crek!

Heavy machine gun shelves were fitted with positions adjusted to point straight at Aston and his men. Not to mention the large weapons that include mortars and artillery…

Ting!  Ting!

The sound of clangs of sticks and other metal weapons echoed in the air.  Seeing that Trey's men dropped their weapons and raised both hands on the head in fear. Some of them had even peed inside their pants.

For decades, he had ruled the underground forces with his brutality and violence.  He had seen it all and had never felt afraid by any opponent. He could drop dozens of men at once, break their ribs and even slit their throats.  He considered them all to be nothing more than breadcrumbs that even ants were bigger than them.

But the scene in front of him was at a level far beyond his expectations. Just like the War he used to see on TV is now being played right in front of his eyes!

Dug Dugs!

Matthew knelt on the floor and begged, “Please let me go.  I have nothing to do with this!"

Ashton stared at the weapon directed at him.  The soulless metallic clang stared back at him like numerous ghostly eyes.  It made his face turn pale and his legs tremble in fear.

"I-I didn't either. I didn't do anything either."

That unexpected event really left Ashton dumbfounded.  He never imagined Levi could call the entire regiment with just one phone call…

Zoey is also fascinated by the dramatic turn of events.  He even needed a moment to calm himself down before he turned his gaze to Levi.

He felt like he saw a magical halo shining above Levi. How could he possibly call such a large regiment with just a phone call?

A man stepped forward among the troops. He had two gold stripes and three stars embroidered on the shoulders of his military uniform. They could tell that he was a military official.

“Steven Shaw, Colonel of North Hampton's First Metallic Regiment, reporting for duty, sir!  We are here to protect the God of War! ”

Steven Shaw gave Levi an ambiguous look as he raised his left hand to salute the military.

Another man in military uniform stepped from the opposite direction.  He had a huge golden star embroidery on his shoulder and a group of soldiers behind him. He had an overwhelming aura of knights, he was none other than the War King, Azure Dragon.

“The First Metallic Specimen has completely surrounded the complex, General Azure Dragon! Waiting for the next command, sir!” Steven Shaw ran into the Azure Dragon and paid his respects to the other military.

Azure Dragon took off his gloves and asked in an impersonal voice, "Do you guys know who the owner of this villa is?"

“M-Could it belong to the De-God of War?”  ashton replied in a trembling voice, while his body jolted uncontrollably like he was having a seizure.

"Bingo."  Azure Dragon smiled, "All the villas in this area are his."

Ashton took a deep breath.  He was so gripped with fear that he almost fainted.

Trey thumped in horror when he heard that name.  It dried its face of all colors and immobilized its body, as if its soul had left and left it with an empty shell.

He would never dare to set foot here if he knew this area belonged to the War God.  It was the same as stepping his foot into the gates of hell.

"Why did you bring your men here?"  Azure Dragon glared at Ashton and Trey, "Are you trying to harm the God of War?"  he growls.
